Chapter 3 Integrated RA Setup and Configuration XXXXX YYYYY XXXXX = a five digit number identifying the server on which the event occurred (you set this using the Server Identification command) YYYYY = a five digit number identifying the event. When an event tagged for paging occurs, Integrated RA dials the specified numeric pager number(s) and sends the appropriate codes for the server and the event. (See Appendix A for a description of event codes.) Adding a Confirmation Code By default, Integrated RA automatically adds two pound signs (#) to the end of the pager string. These characters are required by most pager services to confirm and send the message. However, your pager service may require a different touch-tone sequence for confirmation. For example, some pager services require two stars (*) at the end of the pager string. If you are using a pager service that requires alternate characters at the end of the string, you can override the default by inserting two forward slashes (//) indicating the pager message (Server ID + Event Code), immediately followed by the required characters at the end of the pager string. For example: 9w800-555-7654,,,//** The above example instructs Integrated RA to send two stars (**) at the end of the pager string instead of the default pound (#) signs. If you do not insert "//" in the pager string, Integrated RA will send the default characters instead. NOTE Many page providers will format the 10 digits of the pager message (Server ID + Event Code),as 123, 456-7890. Some services allow this formatting default to be overridden by explicitly providing a dash via the star key. Characters placed between the two slashes in the pager number are placed between the Server ID and the Event Code. For example, the string "9w800-555-7654,,,/*/" will insert a * between the Server ID and Event Code, but the second slash indicates that the end of the pager string is also to be overridden with what follows: in this case nothing. To insert the * without overriding the trailing default pound signs ##, use the string "9w800-5557654,,,/*". 31

When an event tagged for paging occurs, Integrated RA dials the specified
numeric pager number(s) and sends the appropriate codes for the server and the
event. (See Appendix A for a description of event codes.)
Adding a Confirmation Code
By default, Integrated RA automatically adds
two pound signs (#) to the end of the pager string. These characters are required
by most pager services to confirm and send the message. However, your pager
service may require a different touch-tone sequence for confirmation. For
example, some pager services require two stars (*) at the end of the pager string.
If you are using a pager service that requires alternate characters at the
end of the string, you can override the default by inserting two forward
slashes (//) indicating the pager message (Server ID + Event Code),
immediately followed by the required characters at the end of the pager
string. For example:
9w800-555-7654,,,//**
The above example instructs Integrated RA to send two stars (**) at the
end of the pager string instead of the default pound (#) signs. If you do
not insert "//" in the pager string, Integrated RA will send the default
characters instead.
NOTE
Many page providers will format the 10 digits of the pager
message (Server ID + Event Code),as 123, 456-7890. Some
services allow this formatting default to be overridden by
explicitly providing a dash via the star key. Characters placed
between the two slashes in the pager number are placed
between the Server ID and the Event Code.
For example, the
string "9w800-555-7654,,,/*/" will insert a * between the
Server ID and Event Code, but the second slash indicates that
the end of the pager string is also to be overridden with what
follows: in this case nothing.
To insert the * without overriding
the trailing default pound signs ##, use the string "9w800-555-
7654,,,/*".
